		</div><p>US House Of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi has endorsed Joe Biden’s presidential bid, expanding the list of high-profile Democrats who have rallied around the former vice president.</p>
<p>The California Democrat, in video remarks, said Mr Biden offers <em>“hope and courage, values, authenticity and integrity”</em>.</p>
<p>She said he would be a <em>“voice of reason and resilience”</em> amid the coronavirus pandemic.</p>
<p>Ms Pelosi also cited Mr Biden’s work as President Barack Obama’s vice president during the 2010 health care overhaul and the economic recovery acts after the 2008 financial collapse.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I&#39;m incredibly honored by <a href="https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SpeakerPelosi</a>&#39;s endorsement and grateful for her historic leadership in Congress. </p>
<p>Together, we helped pass Obamacare and together we can not only bring this country back from the brink from this current crisis, but transform it. <a href="https://t.co/nJG599w7lU">https://t.co/nJG599w7lU</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1254756132746379266?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 27, 2020</a></p></blockquote>

<p>Her support was not unexpected now that Mr Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee to take on President Donald Trump in November.</p>
<p>Still, her backing ratifies Mr Biden’s contention that he is the party’s best chance to keep the House majority and regain Senate control from Republicans.</p>
<p>Ms Pelosi spearheaded Democrats’ midterm House victories in 2018, when Democrats won more than 40 Republican-held seats to take the majority and hand Ms Pelosi a second turn as the first woman speaker in US history.</p>
<p>Mr Biden argued that Democrats succeeded in the 2018 midterms because they did not move too far to the left in historically Republican-leaning districts.</p>
<p>Ms Pelosi has said repeatedly that Democrats win when they recruit candidates who <em>“fit their district”</em>.</p>
<p>The approach has exposed both Mr Biden and Ms Pelosi to criticism from Democrats’ left flank.</p>
<p>Both argue against the <em>“Medicare for All”</em> single-payer insurance proposal advance by progressive Democrats, including Mr Biden’s former primary rivals Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.</p>
<p>Ms Pelosi and Mr Biden counter with the argument that winning elections is the way to advance liberal policies.</p>
<p>In the case of health care, their preferred next step is a <em>“public option”</em> government insurance plan that would compete with, but not replace private insurers.</p>
<p>Mr Sanders and Ms Warren have both previously endorsed Mr Biden.</p>
